Venice Grand Canal in Taguig

Posted on December 24, 2022 by shellan

If you are looking for a shopping mall that offers an out of the country experience, such as Venice (obviously), then this Venice Grand Canal in Taguig is the mall for you. Located at Taguig, it will only take you an hour or so to get here if you are coming from Manila or Cavite.

This is actually our firs time here, so I do not know if the volume of people were the same on other seasons. I was hoping to get a quality photoshoot here, given the fact that the place is instagrammable, but due to the volume of people, that you can see here on the link: https://youtu.be/KyvQfxYPs2w , we (me and my husband) failed to get one. But here are some photos we took that somehow capture the beauty of the place:

Thanks to my husband who captures these photos and is so patient with me because really I’m having a mood swing during this time. Perhaps because of the crowd or hunger.

Meanwhile, here is my favorIte photo among all:

Anyway, if you don’t like crowded places, don’t go here during holidays. You will also have to wait on a long line to experience Gandola ride worth P400 each, and that my friend I think is not worth your time and energy. Because the ride will only take you around 15mins. Anyway, the choice is still yours, as long as you enjoy the moment, it’s worth it. Have a safe and wonderful Christmas, Shalom!

The Historical Casa Hacienda

Posted on March 3, 2020 by shellan

Cavite is one of the most historical places in the Philippines. And there are must-go-to places if you would like to tour its historical places. Top on the list is Aguinaldo Shrine. I have already made two blogs about it, another is this: Hidden Instagrammable Spot at Aguinaldo Shrine. But have you heard the Historical Casa Haciend?

Again, I am not here to google-feed you the information about this place but I can give you a brief overview about it. Primarily, this place, Casa Hacienda, was the first venue of Philippine Election. It wasn’t a domocratic election. Officers from KKK and some other organizations joined together to form an official government, hence that election was held. As you can see in the picture above, commotion had happened.

If you would like to know more details about that history, you can personally visit Casa Hacienda and take a tour. Pamphlets are available containing the full history of it. Yep, I am not going to share it online because I’d like people to experience it first-hand.

Also, there’s this tunnel in Casa Hacienda connecting to Aguinaldo Shrine. Here’s the photo:

Here are other instagrammable photos we’ve taken at the place:

If you want a virtual (vlog) tour of this place, here is the link: Casa Hacienda Virtual Tour

The best time to go here are during Monday mornings. Security Guards are dressed up like Guardia Sibil:

P.S. There is no Registration Fee but you need to ask permission and get a pass from the local government to do your activity.

If you are a motorbike rider, then most probably you get to set an scheduled road trips to awesome scenery in the country once in a while. And here in the Philippines, Kaybiang Tunnel is one of those attractions a rider (even tourists) must see.

Kaybiang Tunnel made an easy way access from Maragondon to Nasugbu and vice versa. It connects two wonderful provinces: Cavite and Batangas. Travel time from Manila will take 3 hours or more via Motorbike. If you want to know more about Kaybiang Tunnel, Google is just a click away.

Witness our road trip here: Kaybiang Road Trip

And here are some of the photos we had on our trip:
